[@adrianalexandrov7730]

@@justcallmetruman yeah, "welfare check". Not sure how it works in the Netherlands, but AFAIK in the US if they knock on your door suspecting you of something or just wanting a witness -- you can tell them to pound dust or just don't answer the door. But if that's a welfare check it opens whole lot of options for them to breach in claiming they heard something strange or that you were talking strange and they suspected you had a hearth attack or something. And they had to breach the door to help you. P.S. I take it she was genuine in this Aussie girl's case, though. But a lot of ways to abuse the power, yeah.

I've been teaching OSINT since 2012 for a well-known consulting firm catering to federal clients in the Beltway and beyond. Students are typically of the mindset (on day 1 of class) that the only 'real' intel is from classified sources. My icebreaker always involves a quick, 5-minute perusal of the class roster, and what I can glean from their social footprint online. Then, when class begins, I will ask increasingly narrower questions (for a show of hands) until only one student's hand remains raised. I then go on to continue adding facts, photos, and the like to show just how much information we can glean on most modern-day folks. While it always gets a laugh (and a little good-natured ribbing when we find a long-abandoned and forgotten college MySpace), it also tends to get them to pay attention a bit more...

[@EmbraceTerror]

I'm worried about Michah's answer as to how parents can help their children mitigate predators accessing their children online via background images. I agree that the images can help a predator determine if any monetary values are worth pursuing, but have little to do with how predators "social engineer" (manipulate) their targets. It is really upsetting me ....

I would assume there should be some balance between protecting your kids and hurting them psychologically by making them live in the pandemonium and controlling their every step.

[@ex7229]

Not enough women in tech is a problem just like there is not enough men in nursing is a problem. Its not a problem its being made into one by people who look at numbers and ignore culture and biology. Let people do what they want and when we gather the information of the end result don't say there's a problem when there is not. Women who love tech are in tech and men who love nursing are in nursing. There's nearly no barriers in western societies for any sex to enter a field they desire. Let things be organic and not forced.

[@adrianalexandrov7730]

I also like how those discussions inevitably always comes to revelation that women are humans too and are affected by their interests, upbringing, life experiences etc. - "We have lack of women in tech CEOs and founders" - Yeah, those nerds are such cause they were hacking with stuff since school.

The best part of the video is when someone compared North Korean surveillance to western surveillance. We are unable to walk around or use technology with being tracked. Its like we are in a free range prison. And Australia is a great example how quickly it gan go from free range to caged.

[@adrianalexandrov7730]

Talking about North Korea I've watched a Russian guy's Andrei Lankov interview ,he is an expert on North Korea since the Soviet era, had easier entry there then the Western people. So he was mentioning their surveillance. And what they do is along with having a building supervisor like in the rental city buildings in the US, they also have a "community supervisor". Usually a middle aged women who's job is to know every family, regularly interact with everyone in a kinda friendly manner. Basically a snitch on government's payroll. So I'd say they've created a low tech facebook there ))) And Soviets had some kind of that snitches as well.

I like the osint side. Cyber is one where critical thinking is needed. Heck going on the offense requires those skills as it requires you to look at the designers and their personality profiles. And scouting is not as clear cut as running nmap scans. I think we should get more walkthroughs going. Demos of common tools, then a mockup where all the tools in action are used one after the other. Show some api daisy chaining of dynamic targets.
